Texas A&M junior Khris Middleton has declared for the NBA draft. Middleton missed 12 games last season with a knee injury. He averaged 13.2 points and five rebounds in a disappointing 14-18 season for the Aggies which broke a streak of six straight NCAA tournament appearances. The Aggies were preseason favorites to contend with Kansas for the Big 12 title, but a number of injuries, including the one to Middleton contributed to a 4-14 Big 12 record. The Score

Tomorrow’s NCAA-mandated date to decide whether or not to enter the NBA early will be just another Tuesday for Duke’s Mason Plumlee. The junior center, who has been told he projects as a mid-to-late first-round draft pick, could take up until April 29, the NBA’s deadline for players to enter the draft. Perky Plumlee, Mason’s father, said Monday morning that his son is “agonizing” over whether or not to leave Duke with one season of eligibility remaining. “Maybe for some kids it’s so clear cut it’s easy,” Perky Plumlee said. “But it’s not an easy decision for Mason. For some kids who don’t want to go to school or don’t do well in school or don’t like school, they would think about it for about two seconds. He’s getting favorable input. He’s well regarded by NBA scouts. He actually is at a point where he would have a bright future either direction.” The Herald Sun
